Guest cobainwasmurdered Report post Posted October 7, 2002 So last night I was at Wal Mart checking out prices for DVD players (I need a new one), when over the intercom I Hear, "Would The Man In The Dress Please Come To Customer Service" I knew that I had to see this, so I started towards Customer Service. All of a sudden all the Wal Mart Staff took off towards it too, when I got to the area this 6 foot 6 guy was swinging a purse at the staff. This guy was not just wearing adress he was wearing make up, high heels, the works. Eventually the police came and escorted him away, after that I was wondering if anyone had some weird stories like that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Leena Report post Posted October 7, 2002 A WalMart was recently robbed around here, and of course, the dumbass was caught. That's rather stupid considering you'll hardly get anything, and 99% chance you'll be caught. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest MrRant Report post Posted October 7, 2002 I remember a couple years back I was in a Cost Cutter grocery and a guy was being dragged back in by employees and police. He tried to shoplift some fried chicken (hot fried chicken) by sticking it down his pants. You could tell from the grease stains. True story. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DJ Jeff Report post Posted October 7, 2002 Nothing like that has happened in Calgary as far as I know. Though, when I went to Robin's Donuts on Tuesday night, the service was poor. Me and my cousin waited like 15 minutes before we finally got to order what we wanted, and there was like no lineup at all. The best part was there was a sign that said "Quality Service".

Yeah, it was a gay story, but like I said, nothing exciting happens in Calgary. Well, the cops here take advantage of the fact that they can use their sirens anytime. This one time, this cop turned on his lights, just so he could pass everyone in order to get to Tim Hortons faster. True story by the way. No robbery or anything of the sort was going down at Tims.

Guest kkktookmybabyaway Report post Posted October 7, 2002 "The Best Buy guys annoy me since they all constantly ask 'Any questions', 'Want help', No you losers, just go back to the TVs, I know what I want." What gets my panties in a bunch is when you buy something and they PIMP relentlessly whatever warranty is being offered. That's a reason I never go to BB for anything over $20... There are so many white trash stories regarding Wal-Mart, but one that sticks out in my memory was from several years ago. This guy was trying to return a TV for a more expensive model. When the CSRs and Manager were trying to explain to him that he can't exchange one model for a more expensive model he screamed "Wal-Mart guarantees customer satisfaction." I went up to him, laughed in his face, and left. (For the record, there was nothing wrong with the TV he had -- he just wanted to "upgrade" it...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Jobber of the Week Report post Posted October 7, 2002 What gets my panties in a bunch is when you buy something and they PIMP relentlessly whatever warranty is being offered. That's a reason I never go to BB for anything over $20... They are either forced or at least encouraged by managers to do this. They even throw in cheesy perks to make sure employees do this, such as giving people who sell the most warranties in a day a chance to go home early and avoid a chore like vaccuuming the floor. Don't blame the individual guy, but feel free to write a letter of complaint to your local Store Manager or to the company. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted October 7, 2002 They probably insulted the guy or something to set him off. I saw this transvestite once, I mean it was BAD. This guy was taller than me, so he was at least 6'4 or 6'5, probably pushing 300 and change, big beergut, full beard, and he was wearing a frilly dress. I walked by him in the aisle in the grocery store and said "Nice shoes." He muttered thanks and that was about it. I wouldn't want to see a guy like that get violent. Going out into public dressed like a woman, but not even bothering to shave or add makeup, THAT takes some serious balls. I doubt he lost a bet, though. He genuinely appeared to just be out shopping.

What you need to do is turn off the computer My Pale Faced Virgin Friend, and go outside. As a matter of fact, I do get out. I go to the Stampede at least once when it comes. That actually reminds me, the first Stampede I went to, there was this drunk guy that came up to me and started talking to me as if he knew me. Oh, and when I was coming home this one night, another drunk guy came up to me just as I was leaving my cousin's, explaining to me how I should drive safe, don't speed, and watch out for the signs. When I go to any Flames games, which isn't often, nothing exciting happens. Though, the Flames did win on Saturday. The last Stamps game I went to was last year against the Ti-Cats. I don't go to many Stamps games, since I'm not a big football fan. Stuff does happen in Calgary, I'm just not there to witness it, or I don't remember it.

Guest crandamaniac Report post Posted October 7, 2002 If you want crazy Wal-mart shopper stories, oh boy do I got some. Here's the craziest one I got. I was working in electronics. There was nothing to do so I was just standing at the register waiting for customers. There's a woman outside of electronics looking at some film with her daughter. There's a couple of guys walking around, talking, and one of them says "damn". This woman turns around, and yells at the guy "I'd appreciate it if you didn't cuss around my children". The guy yells back "It's a free country, I'll say whatever I damn well please" They argue a little bit, the guy is basically trying to get away from the woman, when she pulls out some pepper spray and sprays the guy. She takes off, the guy goes down, and I freak out! I call management over to help out the guy, who's on the ground crying. When they come over, I tell them what happened, and take off to find the woman. I find her, management calls the cops, and have her arrested. At the police office, when they're releasing her on bail, as she's walking out, she states "Yeah, I sprayed him, and would have done it again if I had a chance" thus earning her a secure bail Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I worked at Sam's Club for a year and a half and the managers literally tried to FORCE me to pimp their damn warrenties for electronic shit and such. What made it all the more funnier was that the manager that really had a problem with me tried to threaten me with termination if I didn't start shilling them. Me being who I am, I laughed in his face and went back to work. Then I got fired for "stealing" time less than a month later. Ahhhhh politics... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
